It's the WRs fault and the coaches fault...does Vick ever get any of the blame for his lack of (overall) success in the NFL? He has not grown as a player in his 6 years in the league. At some point he's got to share much of the blame for his struggles.

I've said this all year in regards to Vince Young. The Titans' coaching staff isn't doing him any favors by letting him play "his game". Make the guy stay in the pocket and learn to pass in the NFL. It will hurt the team in the short term but in the long term they will be much better off. Once he becomes a more efficient passer then release the reigns and let him run too. A QB who is better at running than throwing has never won consistantly in the NFL. In order to be successful a QB must be an efficient passer. The best thing the Bills coaching staff has done this year is by limiting JP’s running. They sacrificed short term success for long term gains. It’s already starting to pay off.

Let's hope it's true and the Phins come out ready to play Monday night.

It's usually pretty easy to not get run on in the second half when you're blowing out teams like the Bills have been the past few weeks. Before that San Diego had 92 yards rushing in the first half and 197 total yards rushing on the game, which means they gashed the Bills for 105 yards on the ground in the second half. Jax rushed for 73 yards in the second half. While that is a good deal less than the 130 or so they ran up in the first half, it's still horrible. The run D is still a problem. Hopefully the Bills can get a lead and take the Titans off their gameplan.

He's always dropped lots of passes. This isn't anything new.

I have a feeling that if the Bills lose half of the people on this board will blame the refs.

I think only Jaws and Dr. Z should vote for the Pro Bowl team.

I can't believe I'm going to do it, but I am. I am going to defend Owens (yes, I feel dirty). Owens has had a very solid season. 77 reception, over 1k yards and 11 TDs (he leads the league in TD receptions). That's not really living off his past reputation (though I'll agree they're not as good as some of his numbers in the past). It wouldn't have been a stretch for Owens to have made the Pro Bowl.

There's an outside shot I'll go to Ravens game. If the Bills win this week it will increase the chances though it would be a major hassle as I have a friend coming into town (NYC) the day before and I'd have to stick him in the car and buy him a ticket too (and then speed back to NYC for New Years Eve). Still, I might go ahead and do it.

I really don't think players and coaches know that much more about the entire league. They certainly know a hell of a lot more about the players on the teams they play but they really don't have much time to concentrate on the league as a whole. I'd guess most of them only see, at most, one game on TV a week. The way the Pro-Bowl is done now is fine. Sure I don't agree with all of the selections but I don't think I would no matter how they were done.

Evans certainly is getting some ink this week. If these writers had given him some props 4-5 weeks ago perahaps he'd be in the Pro Bowl. As much as I like Evans I don't think it's a giant snub that he's not in the Pro Bowl this year. There are a bunch of WRs that are crammed together with similar production and Johnson happened to be the one that got selected (Coles, Walker, Houshmanzadah are the others).

For my family Christmas Eve has always been , well, Christmas Eve, not Christmas Eve Day. Are there really that many families that get together and hang out all day on Christmas Eve Day? That's what we do on Christmas Day. That being said I think the NFL would have been wise to move the games to Saturday. Speaking of the NFL and their scheduling, wtf is up with them scheduling a game at 5pm EST on Christmas Day? Are they unaware that many people enjoy a big Christmas dinner together? What was wrong with starting the game at 12-1 and then having the Monday nighter at 8? As it is I'm not going to get to see much of the early game.

Nobody is talking about who is the better player, I'm talking about who had the better season. Freeney's season as been ass, plain and simple. Are you really going to argue the point? As for Schobel vs. the run, when compared to Freeney Schobel looks like Ted Washington. Freeney puts his head down and rushes up field on just about every play. Half the time he's not even aware of where the ball is.

Why, Freeney hasn't had a good year at all. I know a few Colt fans and none of them are that sad that Freeney is likely gone after the year is over. He's a liability against the run and hasn't made up for it with QB pressures this year. There are lots of guys that deserve a pro bowl nod over Freeney this year.

1331 yards and 11 TDs will generally do the trick. LT, LJ and Parker, I can't think of three better AFC backs this year.

From reading the other playoff posts I believe there is a better scenario in which Denver beats Cinci and all of the other above things happen. If that occurs the Bills would control their own destiny going into week 17.

If anyone would know about starting an arguement, it would be you.

If anyone would know something about posts that don't "ring true" it would be you.

My prediction: For the second straight year Moorman will be the only Bill to make the Pro Bowl. London and Schobel will both be alternates.

Somebody needs to get a better sense of humor. Perhaps someone will give you one for Christmas.

The part that has won 5 straight games.

I don't think the toughest part of the equation is all the teams that need to lose. The toughest part is the Bills winning out against a hot Titans team and one of the leagues best Ds in Baltimore.

Peyton doesn't look like he's going to let the Colts lose tonight no matter what. He looks as focused as I've ever seen him.

NS, when you have the Colts' offense is it really necessary to take those kinds of chances on special teams?
